Notice When AI Sounds Too Sure
Works with ChatGPT · Claude · Copilot · Gemini
You can notice when AI sounds surer than it should.
The problem
AI often states uncertain things with total confidence.
What this skill does
Paste an answer and ask the AI to flag overconfident claims and where caution is needed. AI can be confidently wrong; treat certainty as a prompt to verify, not to trust.
When to use it
- Use this when an answer sounds very sure of itself.
Juni’s tip
Juni says: sounding sure is not being right. Watch for false confidence.
